Indeed. Though my point about “user” being a dehumanising term and UX being a colonial approach to design stands :)

Interesting, but I believe the concept of UX has evolved way beyond that limited framing :)http://axbom.com/ux-definition/

I think it’s up to us to move beyond the limited (& colonial) framing of UX to embrace ethical design :)

Which I believe many have done and are doing.

Given that the business model of mainstream tech today is to track, store, analyse & exploit human behaviour, I beg to differ.
